re-learning how to love music

Kenny Werner - "Lawn Chair Society"
Wayne Shorter - "Speak No Evil"
Wayne Shorter - "Juju"
Cake - "Fashion Nugget"
Osvaldo Goljiov - "Oceana", "Tenebrae", "3 Songs for Soprano and Orchestra"
Lee Konitz - "Nonet"

Re-evaluating what I love about music, and why I put so much time into it.  Hopefully I come out on top of myself.

i've started a listening log to sort of keep track of all of the things i'm listening to.  currently i'm keeping track of who played on what, what year it was released, by what record company, and when i listened to it.  i'm considering adding comments about each album though....
